Partners

Building the bridge between biotech innovation and rare disease access.

Rare disease development requires more than one company, one physician or one market. It requires a coordinated ecosystem of biotech innovators, clinical experts, academic centers, research institutions, patient-access stakeholders, regulatory specialists, data partners and healthcare leaders working toward a common goal: helping promising therapies reach the patients who need them. Pharma²⁸ partners with organizations and individuals across this ecosystem to support the responsible international development of therapies for rare and ultra-rare diseases.

Who we partner with

Biotech Companies

Pharma²⁸ works with biotech companies developing therapies for rare and ultra-rare diseases that may benefit from international clinical, regulatory, data or patient-access opportunities.

We help companies evaluate whether Brazil or other international markets may offer relevant patient populations, clinical expertise, evidence-generation opportunities or long-term access potential.

Physicians and Clinical Experts

Specialist physicians are central to rare disease development.

Pharma²⁸ works with experienced clinicians, physician-scientists, investigators and centers of excellence to support disease-area insight, patient identification, clinical feasibility, evidence generation and responsible engagement with innovative therapies.

Academic and Research Institutions

Academic centers and research institutions play a critical role in rare disease innovation.

Pharma²⁸ connects biotech companies with clinical and academic ecosystems that can support scientific collaboration, translational insight, real-world evidence, cohort mapping and clinical development opportunities.

Hospitals and Centers of Excellence

High-volume clinical centers often hold deep expertise, patient cohorts and real-world experience in complex and underdiagnosed conditions.

Pharma²⁸ helps identify and engage institutions with relevant clinical credibility, disease-area focus and the ability to support structured rare disease programs.

Investors and Strategic Partners

For investors and strategic partners, international development can create value beyond traditional market expansion.

Pharma²⁸ helps evaluate how Brazil and other international markets may support clinical validation, patient identification, data generation, market access and long-term strategic value for selected rare disease programs.

Patient-Access and Healthcare Stakeholders

Responsible rare disease development requires alignment with local healthcare realities.

Pharma²⁸ engages stakeholders involved in patient access, clinical pathways, healthcare delivery, policy, advocacy and institutional decision-making to help build pathways that are clinically credible, locally informed and oriented toward patient need.

Regulatory, Data, and Operational Partners

International rare disease programs require strong execution.

Pharma²⁸ works with specialized partners in regulatory strategy, clinical operations, data infrastructure, evidence generation, market access and local implementation to support each program with the expertise required for responsible development.
